The problem is this:


fuse-2.6.5% grep dpkg-divert debian/p*.modules.in
debian/postrm.modules.in:               dpkg-divert --package fuse-modules-@KERNEL@ --remove --rename --divert /lib/modules/@KERNEL@/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko.linux /lib/modules/@KERNEL@/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko
                                                                         ^
                                                                         ^
                                                                         ^
debian/preinst.modules.in:              dpkg-divert --package fuse-modules-@KERNEL@ --add --rename --divert /lib/modules/@KERNEL@/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko.linux /lib/modules/@KERNEL@/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko
                                                                         ^
                                                                         ^
                                                                         ^

You are giving a wrong package name. It should be 'fuse-module-@KERNEL@', not
fuse-modules.

HTH,
